Lynn Montross was born in 1895, and studied at the University of Nebraska before serving three years in an American Expeditionary Force (AEF) regiment in World War I Afterward became a writer for the Chicago Daily News. He died in 1961. Lynn Montross is one of the foremost post-World War II Western military historians. From 1950 to 1961 he was a historical writer for the United States Marine Corps. Though he only published seven books during his life, his insightful monumental lifetime work, War Through the Ages (1960), stands as one of the important works of military history in the 20th century. It has been used as a text book by various military academies. Montross influenced Trevor N. Dupuy and R. Ernest Dupuy's work, The Encyclopedia of Military History. The Encyclopedia of Military History uses the same illustrations as those in War Through the Ages, but also the Encyclopedia has Montross-like narrative sections describing specific periods of history, or particular battles. The Battle of Inchon was an amphibious invasion and battle of the Korean War that resulted in a decisive victory and strategic reversal in favor of the United Nations. The operation involved some 75,000 troops and 261 naval vessels, and led to the recapture of the South Korean capital of Seoul two weeks later. The code name for the operation was Operation Chromite. The battle began on 15 September 1950 and ended on 19 September. Through a surprise amphibious assault far from the Pusan Perimeter that UN and South Korean forces were desperately defending, the largely undefended city of Inchon was secured after being bombed by UN forces. The battle ended a string of victories by the invading Korean People's Army (KPA). The subsequent UN recapture of Seoul partially severed the KPA's supply lines in South Korea. The United Nations and South Korean forces were commanded by General of the Army Douglas MacArthur of the United States Army. MacArthur was the driving force behind the operation, overcoming the strong misgivings of more cautious generals to a risky assault over extremely unfavorable terrain.…

The Battle of Chosin Reservoir, also known as the Chosin Reservoir Campaign or the Changjin Lake Campaign was a decisive battle in the Korean War. The battle took place about a month after the People's Republic of China entered the conflict and sent the People's Volunteer Army 9th Army to infiltrate the northeastern part of North Korea. On 27 November 1950, the Chinese force surprised the US X Corps commanded by Major General Edward Almond at the Chosin Reservoir area. A brutal 17-day battle in freezing weather soon followed. Between 27 November and 13 December, 30,000 United Nations troops under the command of Major General Oliver P. Smith were encircled and attacked by about 120,000 Chinese troops under the command of Song Shi-Lun, who had been ordered by Mao Zedong to destroy the UN forces. The UN forces were able to make a fighting withdrawal and broke out of the encirclement while inflicting heavy casualties on the Chinese. U.S. Marine units were supported in their withdrawal by the U.S. Army's Task Force Faith to their east, who suffered heavy casualties and the full brunt of the Chinese offensive. The evacuation of the X Corps from the port of Hungnam marked the complete withdrawal of UN troops from North Korea.…
